It looks upmarket, but is it?Read more
The Sony Xperia M5 offers most of the features of the flagship Z5, but for substantially less money. Its super-slim design is very nearly the same, and its 21.5 megapixel camera with 4K video makes the M5 one of Sony's best ever camera phones. The 8-core Helio X10 processor isn't quite as fast as the Snapdragon 810 used in top-end phones, and the memory is just 16GB, but for the price, we think that it offers exceptional performance.Read more
